Hi everyone.
Just had my front ek9 calipers rebuild, and I know for sure my slide pins are "sliding well".
Recently changed the pads (for OEM) and the noise disappeared for 2 weeks, and its now back again!

Exacly like this:

This noise is pissing me off for like a year or so, and now one can say exactly what needs to be replaced.

Thanks

Edit: my front discs are a little wrapped, making the car vibrate at speeds over 100km/h (60mph), but shouldn't be the reason for all that noise while stopping at slow speeds.

Can't be, because it just happens when I brake soft.

Not even a small noise when I'm not braking, or breaking very hard or when I'm reversing
 
If you take the wheel off, have a look at the caliper to see if anything is catching it, then just check the wheel weights while your there for damage.
 
Thanks for the hepl, I will do that.
and will post pictures here.

But I'm pretty sure nothing is touching the rim itself.
 
Driveshaft make a click like that when they get worn?
 
Either wheel weights or poss the anti squeal spring. I put money on it being the weights.
